This is Momo, Clay, and Jupiter. This is what they do. All day long. Waddle, quack, single file line. In the morning, they trek to the chicken coop to make sure all is fine. Then they make their way back to the farmhouse for a refreshing dip in the pool. Then they waddle some more, single file. No destination. No striving. No drama. Just living in all of their glorious duckness, chilling together. Let’s all just be more duck-like, whaddya say?

I really never loved cleaning, because here is what usually happens...I mop and then 200 pounds of Great Pyrenees comes in out of the rain and shakes. Or I get the cloths out to dust and then I sweep and next thing I know I am cleaning out my closet so all I have left is a pair of joggers and an IU T-shirt (it’s what I love and what I wear, so if we are getting down to brass tacks...). * But lately I have realized that if my house isn’t feeling good, then I don’t feel good. I don’t want to cook in a messy kitchen. I don’t want to paint or write if the kitchen island is cluttered. So now, cleaning is something I do for myself - it is self-care. Making my children clean is self-care. I may eventually hire out the self-care at some point, but unless I can manage to have them come every morning to sweep a bushel of white fur off the kitchen floor, then it’s up to us to take care of this space for our hearts and minds to flow. * My point is, what if the “chores” we do to take care of our spaces, our loves, aren’t chores at all...it’s just us loving ourselves?

Did the ice cube/potato/needle ear piercing on this one tonight at the kitchen counter, just like my Serbian mother taught me (minus the shot of whiskey beforehand). Tough cookie didn’t even flinch. I don’t know if “Being able to pierce your adolescent’s ears in under two minutes and with no one passing out” is a prerequisite for a “Mother of the Year” award, but if it is, I think I’ve got it locked down. Also, I didn’t give her the shot of whiskey, so that’s gotta count for something. @loolers101
